Things To Do

Market Square

There are lots of yummy places to eat! Some of our favorites are Stock & Barrel, Nama Sushi, The French Market Creperie, and Downtown Grill & Brewery! You can also visit many of the fun bars including Sutree's, Presevation Pub, Scruffy City Hall, or even visit the Speakeasy in the back of the Oliver Hotel! (Josh and I went to the speakeasy on our first date!)

Peter Kern Library

We came here on our first date after a hike and VERY over priced dinner. Such a fun drink spot in an old Speakeasy in downtown Knoxville!

The Cove at Concord Park

The Cove is a wonderful outdoor area perfect for spending time on the lake if you don't have a boat. You can rent kayaks and paddleboards, there's a large roped in area for kiddos to swim (or adults to float!), and lots of room to set up chairs and grill! We come here every July!

Ijams Nature Center

A wonderful place to go for a short hike/nature walk. There is also a quarry where you can rent paddleboards and enjoy some time in the water!

Wilderness at the Smokies

A wonderful family indoor resort! Lots of water attractions for the kids and a fun, but affordable, getwatay!

Laurel Falls Trail

This is where we had our first date!

Smokies Stadium

Catch a baseball game at Smokies Stadium!

Dollywood

One of East Tennessee's favorite places! Dollywood has lots to offer for the whole family!
